The husband is the future chief [infrastructure]

County magistrate Wu was in a hurry. Although he was not the one who presided over the construction of the Xiangjiang dam a few years ago, he was the local county magistrate after all. If something happened, he would be held accountable.

But he didn't know much about water conservancy, so he had to ask the following water engineers.

"I don't know when the rain will last, so you have to find a way to deal with it! Let me tell you, if the Xiangjiang River breaks its embankment, we won't be able to survive!"

County magistrate Wu said this seriously, but he was right. Such a big matter will definitely be held accountable when he goes to work.

In order to shirk their responsibilities, the high officials at the top made them all the scapegoats at the bottom.

The water worker was very panicked, the rain continued to rain and the water was still rising. If it was impossible to reinforce the embankment at this time, people would die if they were not careful.

County Magistrate Wu saw that they didn't make a sound, and his anger had nowhere to vent. He couldn't help but smashed the gavel down, and shouted, "Speak up, you guys!"

At this time, people from below came to report that Lin Zhao and Jiang Ziyan had come and wanted to meet him.

County Magistrate Wu frowned tightly, rubbing his temples with his elbows on the table, extremely irritable, what would you do to see him at this time, "See you, see you."

The people who reported back and forth hesitated for a moment, and said, "But they said they have something important to report to you."

County Magistrate Wu sighed. After all, he is the first case in the two trials. Forget it, let's see each other.

"Let them in."

After Jiang Ziyan and Lin Zhao came in, they told County Magistrate Wu their guesses. County Magistrate Wu didn't expect that the two of them were so smart, and they could guess things exactly based on some fish on the shore.

At this time, County Magistrate Wu thought of the intelligence of Lin Zhao, the chief case, as if he had seen a savior. He hurriedly explained the specific situation of the dam, and then said, "What can you do to remedy it?"

Jiang Ziyan and Lin Zhao glanced at each other, but they didn't expect that something went wrong with the dam.

As for how to remedy the embankment, Jiang Ziyan couldn't think of any good way.First of all, he did not understand the materials and methods of building embankments in this era, and secondly, he was not good at water conservancy projects.

Although he studied architecture in college, he can also draw blueprints, design a house, etc. He has never touched water conservancy.

Before coming here, he looked through the encyclopedia, which recorded some methods of building embankments, but there was no remedial method currently available.

At this moment, Lin Zhao suddenly said, "My lord, I heard that the water diversion dam is being built at the entrance of the Xiangjiang dam?"

Hearing this, without waiting for County Magistrate Wu to speak, the water engineer quickly replied, "That's right, it's indeed a dam."

The dams generally constructed are mainly divided into three types: water dams, rolling dams and barrages.As for which type to use, it is generally determined according to factors such as the river water level, the elevation of the canal head, and the area of ​​the irrigation area.

These are the adults who are proficient in water conservancy engineering in the Ministry of Industry of the imperial court need to consider.If the water level of the river can meet the requirements of water diversion at the mouth of the channel, sub-dams can be built for water diversion.If it is only basically enough, build a rolling dam to raise the water level.If the requirements cannot be met, build barrages to store water.

The Xiangjiang River is precisely the third type, and the barrage was built to store water.

Usually, the Xiangjiang Dam stores a large amount of water and stores it as a reservoir. When it is time to farm, it can divert water to irrigate the farmland and solve the problem of food and clothing for the common people. Therefore, building a dam is a good thing for the country and the people.

But the height of the embankment that was originally built is no longer enough. It rains day and night, and the water level rises seriously. In addition, there was a strong wind in the past few days, and the impact of the rain on the embankment was severe, so cracks appeared.

"The dam was originally used to store water, but now the water volume is too large, and the dam can't stop it."

Magistrate Wu also knows this truth, but the most important thing now is how to remedy it.

"Tell me more in detail," he said.

Lin Zhao continued: "Since the water is too big, why don't you open the gate to release the water?"

"Open the gates to release water? Now is not the time for drought. Taking a step back, now is not the time to irrigate the farmland. Isn't the time for opening the gates to flood the fields of ordinary people?"

Jiang Ziyan understood what Lin Zhao meant, and he said, "Basically, the farmlands in the lower reaches of the Xiangjiang River have almost been harvested. Even if there are still some that haven't been harvested in time, they have been worn down by the wind and rain these days. Even if they are flooded There is no big impact on the fields, after a period of drying, the flood recedes, and the fields can still be planted."

Lin Zhao continued: "If the floodwaters rush down after the embankment breaks and the farmland is still flooded, the embankment will be completely useless at that time. My lord should understand the principle of choosing the lesser of two evils."

Magistrate Wu naturally understood what he meant, but it was a big deal to release the water at this time, and it was also related to the dam. Anyway, he wanted to send a letter to the Ministry of Industry to send someone to repair the dam.

If the higher-ups hold him accountable, I don't know if he can keep his black hat!

Lin Zhao saw his worries, and said, "Are you worried about the higher-ups being held accountable?"

"If this is the case, you don't need to worry too much. As long as you evacuate the people downstream this time and there is no other loss, your lord can write a letter explaining the reason, saying that this natural disaster is serious, and requesting the higher authorities to send people down to repair the embankment.

You don’t need to worry about other things, even if you are held accountable for this matter, you will be held accountable for the person who was responsible for the supervision of the project. At most, you are negligent. In addition, this time the problem was discovered in time and a timely response was made. No big deal. "

Hearing Lin Zhao's analysis, County Magistrate Wu finally felt relieved, and he said, "Just do as you say. I will immediately send people to evacuate the people who may be affected in the downstream, and wait until tomorrow daytime The south gate releases water, and the water is released to the farmland in the south."

If the water is released from the south gate, the least number of people will be affected. The land there is basically Shatian, and there is usually little water, so it is the best direction to release water.The most important task now is to evacuate the people living in that area that may be affected.

According to Lin Zhao's method, Wu County Magistrate ordered the matter properly, and then remembered that Jiang Ziyan and Lin Zhao were still standing here, and he hurriedly said, "Quick, sit down, you two are really my lucky stars, I will wait for you." Let my wife cook something delicious, don't go back tonight, stay for a meal."

Jiang Ziyan said: "Master Wu, we won't eat here anymore, time is running out, I still want to visit my restaurant."

Hearing that County Magistrate Wu didn't keep them, he let them go back.

Zhang Qiu stood waiting for them on the porch outside the yamen. Seeing them go out, he hurried up to meet them and asked, "How is it? Did you tell Mr. Wu? Did he believe it?"

"The hydraulic engineer also discovered something wrong with the dam today, we guessed right."

Hearing this, Zhang Qiu became a little anxious, "Have you discussed any solution?"

Jiang Ziyan patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, it's not as bad as you think. The dam won't collapse for a while."

They still have a few days to evacuate the people, but if they don't open the gates to release the water, when the backlog of water reaches a certain level, the water pressure will definitely break through the dam, and then it will really be impossible to save them.

Simply, the problem is discovered early, and timely response should not cause too much loss.

Things went well, Jiang Ziyan let go of his heavy heart, and let Zhang Qiu drive the carriage towards the restaurant.

It is already afternoon, and more than half of the time has passed. If they rush back to the town at this time, they will have to walk at night. The matter is not so urgent. Jiang Ziyan plans to rest in the restaurant for a night, and then set off early the next morning .

The terrain in the county is high, the waterlogging on the road is not that serious, and the carriage walked slowly.

On the carriage, Jiang Ziyan was a little curious, and said, "Azhao, I didn't know you knew a lot about water conservancy."

"I wrote a policy theory before, which was about water conservancy irrigation to benefit people's livelihood, and I read a lot of books about it."

"That's how it is." Xueba is Xueba, who not only knows a lot, but also uses what he has learned.Unlike him, in his previous life when he had no liberal arts and sciences in his first year of high school, his geography was particularly poor, especially climate and mountains, and he was very confused.

The two talked for a while, and the carriage arrived at Yanjiangnan Restaurant.

The restaurant was closed because of the strong wind. Zhang Qiu went down and knocked on the door. The shopkeeper Xu opened the door and saw that Jiang Ziyan was coming. He quickly opened the door and let them in. shed.

"Why is the boss here at this time?"

"I'm going to the city on business, so I'll stop by and have a rest, and I'll go back tomorrow morning."

Shopkeeper Xu closed the door while talking, and after replacing the door, he not only put on the bolt, but also held it against it with a wooden stick.

Jiang Ziyan saw him holding a wooden stick against the door, and said, "What is this for?"

"The owner doesn't know. The wind was strong a few days ago. Even if the door bolt was closed, the wind blew and the creaking sound was so strong that it looked like the door was about to be blown down. I was worried, so I took a wooden stick. Hold on."
